Layers of Hell
A tortuous journey through the 9 layers of Hell. Greatly inspired by the epic 14th-century poem The Divine Comedy/Dante's Inferno and other such works of media that has explored journeying into damnation. Lyrics: Damned despite moral purity A tempest for depravity Fester in shit for gluttony Labyrinth of atrocities As I traverse the layers of hell Layers of hell Back breaking toil for the greedy Those who are vexed fight endlessly Burnt in stone tombs for heresy Nine circles of brutality As I traverse the layers of hell Layers of hell Twisted trees harrowed by harpies Ten bolgias of misery A lake of ice where Satan dwells 9 layers of torturous cells I have traversed the layers of hell Layers of hellmore

Track 7 on the upcoming full length Nasties. This song is about a reformed killer who after being free from incarceration begins to get those old impulses. Lyrics: sleep terrors evocate cold clammy sweats phantasms of the past provacate incarceration devils in the dome drug induced rehabilitation recollections of atrocities white coat interrogations medical curiosity deranged mystery doped up absolved and free compulsions of a damaged brain left that dark place but the world has changed popping pills with the sun on your face but the beast is stirring impulses return delusions and reality blur so much for the experts those arrogant fools ineptitude begets hurt on a journey of annihilation with the damaged brain a bloody trail of devastation compulsions of a damaged brain more

Vengeful Slaughter
A song about murderous vengeance. I'm trying a new master setup with this track to get the volume levels up, anyone with a good ear who cares to offer some feedback is most welcome! Thanks for listening. Lyrics: quotidian routines damned by fate cast into adversity devoured by hate like a fly in a web in the clutches of the beast coerced and defiled torment that will not cease vengeful slaughter when the suffering ends the devils are fulfilled but the tables have turned it is they who will be killed at the hands of the righteous they reap what they sow pay the piper his pound of flesh quid pro quo vengeful slaughtermore
